British Curriculum International Schools in Tokyo, Japan

British-curriculum international schools in Tokyo follow the English National Curriculum model - typically progressing through Early Years and Key Stages to Cambridge IGCSEs and, in many schools, A-Level study in the sixth form - though some British-style schools also mix elements of the IB or other international programmes. Instruction is almost always in English, with Japanese taught as a modern language from early years and with English-as-an-additional-language or Japanese-support programmes available at many schools. Annual tuition for English-medium international schools in Tokyo commonly sits in the mid-to-high range for the city; published guides and recent fee reviews show typical full-time tuition broadly between about JPY 1.5 million and JPY 3.6 million depending on age group and provider, with additional charges for enrolment, capital levies, transport and meals. Admissions follow either an August - June (international) or April - March (Japanese) school calendar depending on the school, and families are generally advised to start applications 9 - 12 months before the intended start to allow for tests, interviews and waiting lists. Practical matters for relocating families include arranging an appropriate visa (schools typically expect students to be on parental dependent visas), budgeting for tuition plus extras, and checking language-support provision and catchment/commute times in Tokyo’s traffic.
